[PATCH v8 01/17] spi: add basic support for SPI offloading

[David Lechner <dlechner@baylibre.com>]

Add the basic infrastructure to support SPI offload providers and
consumers.

SPI offloading is a feature that allows the SPI controller to perform
transfers without any CPU intervention. This is useful, e.g. for
high-speed data acquisition.

SPI controllers with offload support need to implement the get_offload
and put_offload callbacks and can use the devm_spi_offload_alloc() to
allocate offload instances.

SPI peripheral drivers will call devm_spi_offload_get() to get a
reference to the matching offload instance. This offload instance can
then be attached to a SPI message to request offloading that message.

It is expected that SPI controllers with offload support will check for
the offload instance in the SPI message in the ctlr->optimize_message()
callback and handle it accordingly.

CONFIG_SPI_OFFLOAD is intended to be a select-only option. Both
consumer and provider drivers should `select SPI_OFFLOAD` in their
Kconfig to ensure that the SPI core is built with offload support.

v7 changes: none

v6 changes:
* Drop use of PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO().
* Split header into types.h/provider.h/consumer.h.
* Remove unused spi_controller_offload_ops forward declaration.

v5 changes:
* Don't include linux/property.h (moved to later patch).
* Only allocate single offload instance instead of array.
* Allocate *priv separately to avoid alignment issues.
* Add put_offload() callback instead of assuming devm semantics.
* Drop struct spi_offload::spi. It was only being used as a flag.
* Don't get/put struct spi_offload::provider_dev.
* Add MAINTAINERS entry for me as reviewer for anything related to
  SPI offload.

v4 changes:
* SPI offload functions moved to a separate file instead of spi.c
  (spi.c is already too long).
* struct spi_offload and devm_spi_offload_get() are back, similar to
  but improved over v1. This avoids having to pass the function ID
  string to every function call and re-lookup the offload instance.
* offload message prepare/unprepare functions are removed. Instead the
  existing optimize/unoptimize functions should be used. Setting
  spi_message::offload pointer is used as a flag to differentiate
  between an offloaded message and a regular message.

v3 changes:
* Minor changes to doc comments.
* Changed to use phandle array for spi-offloads.
* Changed id to string to make use of spi-offload-names.

v2 changes:
* This is a rework of "spi: add core support for controllers with offload
  capabilities" from v1.
* The spi_offload_get() function that Nuno didn't like is gone. Instead,
  there is now a mapping callback that uses the new generic devicetree
  binding to request resources automatically when a SPI device is probed.
* The spi_offload_enable/disable() functions for dealing with hardware
  triggers are deferred to a separate patch.
* This leaves adding spi_offload_prepare/unprepare() which have been
  reworked to be a bit more robust.
